RUNWAY

As we’re sure you kiddies are aware, the ladies of GFV hit up Melbourne’s Fashion Lounge on the fourth of February for the Distribution Runway show by Civilian Chavez! The preparation was hectic to say the least. Stunning models, beautiful clothes, thousands of people to adore your work, sounds a breeze? Wrong....ok slight exaggeration there, but one can only dream right? All these years we’ve watched scornfully as models and designers whinge about the sheer pressure and stress undergone in organising and taking part in a runway show…. Industry drama queens who take themselves too seriously right….Once again, wrong! From fittings to run throughs there was never a dull moment (or a smooth one at that) backstage.

It was the night of the flash flooding; we were convinced it was a bad omen. Our suspicions were confirmed when it was announced that due to bad weather and a feared decrease in turn out, we would be forced to commence the show at 11. That’s right PM. We were tired. No, not tired, every limb of our bodies were exhausted, so much so that we couldn’t even order a cocktail to keep us sane… that’s when you know that there’s a problem. Thankfully our gorgeous models dealt with the stress admirably and thankfully, if we say so ourselves…. WE KILLED IT


The fashion gods were with us, the show kicked off at 11 and our loyal legion of fashionistas did not fail to represent. Finally, we would like a have a minute silence for all those who have been eaten alive and spat back out by the fashion world. We here at GFV acknowledge your courage and have a new found respect for you.



Until next time
